HAMLIN TOWNSHIP — A 21-year-old Ludington woman was arrested by a Mason County sheriff’s deputy Sunday, Dec. 4, shortly after 2 a.m. after she allegedly “forced her way into a home” at Marilyn and Jagger roads and then fled in a vehicle, said Mason County Sheriff Kim Cole.
The suspect was arrested on charges of operating while intoxicated and illegal entry, said Sheriff Cole.
